Top South Sarasota Hotel Reviews

Carlisle Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed my stay. The catered dinner was excellent. Compliments to the chef. The room was clean and fresh smelling."

Cottages at Siesta Key Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The Cottages were sold to Azul Resorts which has another similar location around the corner. The entire complex went through a renovation in December of 2025. Expedia still shows it under the old name, and that was a little confusing when I arrived. It looked very clean and new for the most part. I booked the Studio unit with a King size bed. The bed was comfortable and the pillows were great. There is a 65" TV on the wall. It was exactly the same as the one I have at home which was great because I didn't have to learn how to work it. :-) The location is about 250 ft. from the beach access entrance (#13), which is another 200 foot walking path to the sand. The path leaves you about 150 feet from the water (low tide), and about 100 feet from the water (high tide). So if walking is difficult for you, know that you will walk approximately 550 feet before you can wet your toes in the Gulf of America. Regarding the location, it is about 4 miles South of the Sarasota Village downtown, 3 miles South of the main Sarasota Beach public parking area, but there are plenty of restaurant and tiki bars within 1 or 2 miles of the Azul Resort. The only cons I found were that the pool wasn't heated, and someone operates a chair and umbrella rental service that blocks a huge part of the beach area. There is room to the left of the path, or you can go to the right of the blocked off area. They also leave a small strip in front of the blocked area. We didn't have a problem finding room on d'sand."

Siesta Key Beach Resort and Suites

8/10 Good

"I had a three night stay at this hotel on Siesta Key. Great location, and I walked every where safely alone. Very friendly staff! My comments on the room. - the mattress needs to be replaced in room 102 - a threshold at the door would be nice to keep any critters from crawling into the room. - the dehumidifier in the room makes some very loud sounds, frequently, which woke me often."
